ABSTRACT:
A vehicle has a side opening that is closed by a sliding door. The door has an articulating lower roller assembly at the front end that translates in a track adjacent the bottom of the side opening. The roller assembly is attached to the door by a slide mechanism that allows the door to open further after the roller assembly reaches the end of the track. The slide mechanism is controlled by a spring biased clutch pin that is retracted by a cam on the vehicle body to release the slide mechanism as the door travels to the open position.
